Adorning a garden with some unique features
that make it worth visiting or spending time around is necessary.
But you don't have to squander your savings.
With these 10 unique small garden ideas,
you will find the right way to shape your garden into something that would catch people's eyes.
As always, Simphome presents you with the list
10. Make the Pathway Attractive
A cramped space would only allow you to have a garden with plants on the edges.
You have no choice because you will use the middle part
as the only access that connects you to the adjacent area.
In this type of garden, the pathway would be a thing
that many guests wouldn't fail to notice since it is the main feature here.
A straight path could work in a small garden.
You can also try to shape it a little to make it look curvaceous if it's long enough.
Besides, it will add more interest to your short trip to the backyard.
9. Build a Fence
This small garden is simple,
with a compact lawn in the middle surrounded by some medium-sized plants.
When you have only a small square area of a garden,
you may not have to include a bench there.
There's nothing wrong with that, though. But if you do,
it may disturb the flow of your beautiful garden as it looks like you cram everything into it already.
To make your garden look even more exquisite, you can add some rocks to the bed areas.
Try designing the grass into a clear pattern to make it look neater.
To round out it, you can build a fence around the garden.
This way, you will create not only a clear boundary but also a more finished look.
Most importantly, you can earn the ultimate privacy that you want.
8. Supplement it with Stunning grass
Although your garden is not spacious,
it does not mean you cannot have a lush green carpeting lawn that covers your entire backyard.
This garden, for instance, has a green lawn with a smooth and even surface,
which is perfect for your kids who like revel in playing games.
It also features hedges that surround it, which creates green fences.
To get this appealing look, you have to mow the lawn regularly.
If you do not have much time to do it, consider investing in artificial turf.
Step 1: Research the type of turf that will look good with your garden.
You can do this by visiting a local garden supply store.
Also, you can check online for the prices and product specifications of several artificial turfs.
Step 2: Check on customer reviews to make sure it is an excellent material for your garden.
This way, you will be confident that you are investing in a good quality product.
7. Bring Japanese Vibes to Your Garden
If you're interested in an Asian-inspired garden, this could be a good reference for you.
A Japanese-themed garden with a wooden deck really brings the country's atmosphere.
Adding some rocks as step stones would be a great move.
However, you should find rocks that have flat surfaces, or at least they're not slippery or tapering.
And make sure they don't shift when you step on.
Japanese maple and Yoshino cherry tree are the staples of a Japanese garden.
Therefore, it would be better if you grew them in your backyard.
Besides, both have stunning visuals.
Japanese maple can grow up to 25 feet tall with bright, pink-colored foliage,
while Yoshio cherry tree has pink and white flowers.
Before deciding what plants to add, be sure they can adapt to your area so that they can thrive.
Here are some other plants that fit a Japanese-inspired garden:
• Japanese Maple, Camellia, Hakone Grass
Platain Lily, Mondo Grass, Oriental Poppy
Yoshino Cherry Tree, Japanese Timber Bamboo, Japanese Snow Bell
6. Experiment with Old-Fashioned Style Adaptations
Something old isn't always unfashionable or obsolete.
This garden, for instance, has an old-fashioned style, yet its beauty lasts forever,
with its bricks covering most of the area.
It stands out among new or modern buildings.
This garden is undoubtedly a lovely outdoor retreat as you don't have to go to a central park nearby.
It has an authentic design, and it's what makes it unique
and has more value than a garden that only focuses on the size
with no really good planning or screening.
General Instructions:
No 1. You can start by transforming your patio
not only into a beautiful garden but also a functional one.
To do so, simply cover it with bricks and add pieces of wood for additional accents.
With the addition of the brick bench,
you will surely enjoy sitting there and looking at your lovely flowers or other plants.
No 2. You can also add flower boxes and containers filled
with herbs and colorful flowers like geraniums, tomatoes,
and even roses to create an accent every time you walk through the patio.
You can also add a bench in between them or create a path
that’ll lead you toward the backyard area, where you can enjoy your morning coffee.
5. The Vertical Hanging Garden
When you think your garden needs to be more colorful,
you can add a group of plants with stunning foliage or beautiful flowers.
Hang them on the wall or fence and space them equally.
Putting them in pretty planters or pots works just fine.
The pots or planters themselves can be an adornment to your garden.
You can combine them with the plants to create harmony.
4. Create a Center of Attention
Bricks have an artistic touch, and they are simple to use, not to mention they are inexpensive.
The unique thing about them is that you can have many types of designs or styles
that you can use to cover the floor or surface.
If you think you can squeeze some space out of the garden, that would be great.
You can have some plants in the middle.
But do force it if you think it would only ruin it due to lack of space.
Adding a bench shouldn't be a problem since it doesn't disturb the workflow.
You can enjoy the garden while absorbing the morning ray of the sun.
Other alternatives, you can complement your garden with:
No 1: Natural Stone Bench No 2: Wooden Bench Design
No 3: A Notebook Wall No 4: A Peasant Meal Table
No 5: A Hammock No 6: A Picnic Table
No 7: A Tiny Garden Conservatory No 8: Beige Paver Patios
No 9: A Water Fountain No 10: Various Kind of Garden Containers
3. Minimalist Side of the Garden
A garden isn't always about a variety of flowers.
Some just have a few plants on them.
The idea could be the less the foliage, the fewer the cleaning duty will be.
But to be honest, it still looks nice and shows its minimalist side.
Bricks cover most areas of this garden.
It only has some shrubs on the edges and in the middle, making it a great centerpiece.
It also has a bench as a comfortable seat.
You can spend time sitting there in the morning under the sun or playing with your family in the evening.
The simplicity is what makes a garden easy to maintain,
and you don't have to be bothered by its maintenance cost, for example.
And this garden certainly is meant to be that way.
2. Keep the Legacy
Designing a garden seems to be an enjoyable activity as long as you can afford the materials.
This garden shows its unique character by joining the brick and a slightly modern seating area.
Still, many would say that the wall is attractive.
A fire pit comes as an excellent addition to spend the night outside in cold weather.
It even has a fabric roof and some ting light bulbs.
You can bring a rug and lie yourself down on the grass.
